Default Retrofitted CD5 headlights

Does anyone sell them? I want this to be one of my first upgrades to my new project because nothing is more important than your visibility at night. I dont want halo's, or any other variation either. Just a nice simple HID ready headlight. Any ideas?

Just a thought, Retrofitted lights can be expensive, If you want upgrades and good visibility then buy some projector lights.
Like these:http://shop.3bspecialties.com/Headlights_c1430.htm
But its all up to you, that's just food for thought.

HID retro > halogen projectors (with HID drop ins)

The difference is night and day. The cut off on a xenon units helps prevent the HIDs from blinding oncomming traffic as well as the people in front of you. Plus it helps focus the beam of light as well, allowing you to see much more and much clearer.

For me its not about the HID look, but my actual visibility.
